ok.....you wanted to know...
it`s a kind of caserole. you batter the schnitzel and cook it.
then you fry champignons with ham and onions.
then you layer the schnitzel, the shroom/ham mix and sour cream into a caserole.
let it set overnight and then stick it in the oven the next evening.
it`s served with rice, krautsalat, gurkins and baguette....
hans...yeah !!!!

Cecile:
It was that kind of night. The one Khan song I really liked was "Vaseline", sung by Kid Congo himself.

A translation taken off the WWW:
Maybe a translation would be in order, for all you francophobes out there. These are the lyrics from Nick Cave's english version of the song.

I love you, I love you, Oh yes I love you
Nor do I
Oh my love
Like the wave, irresolute
I go, I go and I come, Inside you my love
I go and I come, Inside you my love
And then I hold on

I love you, I love you, Oh Yes I love you
Nor do I
You are the wave, And I the naked island
You go, you go and you come, inside me me love
you go and you come inside me my love
and then we are one

I love you, I love you, Oh yes I love you
Nor do I
Oh my love
Like the wave, irresolute
I go, i go and I come, Inside you my love
I go and I come, Inside you my love
And then I hold on

I love, I love you my love, Inside me my love
I love you my love, Deep inside me my love
And then we are one

I love you, I love you, Oh yes I love
Nor do I
Oh my love
Physical love is a dead end
I go, I go and I come, Inside you my love
I go and I come
And I hold on

No. Now...come

English
Je t’aime… Mon non plus
I love you, I love you
Oh, yes I love you!
No longer me
Oh, my love…
Like the undecided wave
I go, I go and I come
Between your back
I go and I come
Between your back
And I hold back.

I love you, I love you
Oh, yes I love you!
no longer me
Oh, my love…
You are the wave, I’m the naked island
You go, you go and you come
Between my back
You go and you come
Between my back
And I rejoin you.

I love you, I love you
Oh, yes I love you!
no longer me
Oh, my love…
Like the undecided wave
I go, I go and I come
Between your back
I go and I come
Between your back
And I hold back.

You go, you go and you come
Between my back
You go and you come
Between my back
And I rejoin you.

I love you, I love you
Oh, yes I love you!
No longer me
Oh, my love…
The physical love is without a way out
I go, I go and I come
Between your back
I go and I come back
And I hold back
No! Now come!

It's like Berlin was still stuck in the 40s.

Garrison:
Earlier in the 00s I spent part of a summer in Kreutzb. on Adalbertstrasse half a block east of where the wall had run. It was still pretty funky and cheap. Dive bars, doner kebab stands, cheap apartments.

Danielle and Alex, I wish you the best of luck in your travels!

jean:
ahh the dilema... work for $ all the time to make ends meet in NYC, or be based in Berlin and have no money and time to work on your own projects... of course you end up running out of breath with no money all the time.happy trails!

Thu. 12/23/10 5:09pm
Cecile:
You can live in Upper Michigan. It's still cheap and you have plenty of time because there is absolutely nothing going on. Nothing!

Seamus:
Tell me about Cecile. I live in Saginaw and it used to be lively but in the last 5 years everybody's moving out to find employment.

Thu. 12/23/10 5:14pm
Cecile:
Yeah, we had a joke in the 80s - will the last person to leave Michigan please turn out the lights?

Thu. 12/23/10 5:15pm
Seamus:
I think Jeff Daniels will leave last

Thu. 12/23/10 5:17pm
Cecile:
Yeah. It might not be long. My sis moved out of Saline with her gang to Texas - that was the nearest state where she could find a good job in her field.

Cecile:
Clay better be playing air guitar to this or I'll be disappointed.

hi Fabio! WOW looking at thee playlist and comments, what a fantastic show! so bummed that i missed it -- will have to catch up on the archives! (ha ha! re: lyrics; years ago i worked with a young woman from Canada -- Quebec, i think? but she was fluent in French, was giggling when she heard "Je T'aime Moi Non Plus," she said that the translation was something like, "I'm coming! I'm coming in your hand!" etc.) HAPPY HOLLY-DAZE and JOYOUS NEW YEAR!
